Sutter really didn't trust any of Nesterov, Stone, or Valimaki down the stretch that year IMO and was mixing up pairings to try to protect them.
What I recall is that he finally paired Tanev with Gio and it salvaged Gio’s season. But if you were going to make comparisons, Gio is the most like Weegar.
